what's the term for the kink where you get off on being forced to admit stuff. where you don't like to talk about your embarrassing secrets unless someone is condescendingly teasing you about it and they're getting sadistic pleasure from your discomfort and they have you backed into a corner and you know they're not going to let you know peace unless you spill your guts to them. i get so insanely horny for that. but like. i would never fucking admit that though. you could not torture that information out of me

Yes, obviously. Also, I want to talk about one of the Stargate Atlantis books and there will be spoilers, but it really goes into detail on how this is true.

In Pride of the Genii, It's shown that the ship, The Avenger, which was renamed Pride of the Genii after they scavenged it with the help of Atlantis. Anyway, bunch of plot stuff happened and while Sheppard was helping fix it, a saboteur trapped the ship into thinking it was once again crashing after all the Ancient crew member died, so Sheppard called on every ATA crew member. to basically let the ship know that this wasn't that. That the ship was safe.

And it was portrayed as the ship having a PTSD meltdown, forced to relieve those memories over and over again. Prior to that incident, none of the Atlantis people who interacted with the ship could call it The Pride of the Genii because the personality of the ship was so strong that they only referred to it as The Avenger. But after that, the ship's personality changed and everyone started calling it The Pride of the Genii.

Also, there was a time when Teyla and Sheppard were talking about the differences between controlling Wraith tech and Ancient tech both require controlling the technology with their mind, but while Wraith ships seemed to desire being controlled, Ancient technology always seemed to prefer to make their own choices. Like, they allowed the user to guide them, but the Ancient tech used their own initiative on how to handle things.

So Ancient tech is doms and Wraith tech are subs, which is why Teyla and John get along so well. Because John is submissive and Teyla is dominant.

curiosity is hitting so it's time for another poll

Today I was trying to chat up this girl standing with her friend at a lesbian bar and said “oh are you two together?” meaning were you friends before being next to each other at this bar and one turns to the other and goes with all the venom of a black mamba snake “I don’t know Cara, are we?” and I was like you know what? not my table

Their mission is to acquire advanced technology that could be used to defend Earth. And sometimes, that requires an archeologist who understands a culture enough to be able to ask for something without it being an insult.

Jack is able to look at a piece of technology and determine how it could be used to protect Earth. How it would best help Earth.

Sam meanwhile, can understand technology enough to determine whether or not it's something that can be made on Earth, can it be adapted. Would they need specific parts?

Teal'c understand Goa'uld tactics and technology enough to be able to give an assessment as to how effective this technology would be in defending a planet.

And Daniel knows how to walk up to a stranger and ask them if they can have it.

A lot of people commented on my post about how funny it is that Daniel is on SG-1 saying that yeah that's true but it makes sense because they're an exploratory team. But you have to remember, they're an exploratory team because Daniel pushed for it. At first, the only purpose of the SGC was to find weapons to defend Earth. They put that archaeologist on the flagship team to go find guns and bombs and said 'yeah no this makes sense' which in my opinion makes his being there even funnier.

This was a good movie, but there was a part that triggered me and caused a panic attack so, spoilers below if anyone wants to check.

So the main main girl had a big secret, and the demons figured it out, and so shapeshifters took the place of her friends and costars on stage and exposed her secret, while at the same time singing about how much they hate her. And like, yeah, it wasn't really her friends, but she thought it was, and even after when she managed to get away, her real friends also learned the secret. The way it happened was pretty intense and caused me to have a bit of a panic attack.

Also to be clear if you put the new Harry Potter show on my dashboard I will be unfollowing and probably blocking you. JK Rowling is responsible for the death and pain of too many trans people to count in my country and I cannot tolerate her new way of trying to gain cultural and financial power in any way shape or form.

Someone was asking in a thread what kind of people could work for ICE right now.

I think it's a good time to remember that the image above are the people who put children into gas chambers.

When I was little, I asked what kind of person could work at a concentration camp.

The answer to both questions I think is "normal people who have accepted the dehumanization of another group of people."

so i wore a pride flag pin to work the other day and the kids were all interested (obviously) (find me a classroom of preschoolers who are not obsessed with rainbows) (i'll wait) so they crowded around to see.

"aww!" they said, "it's a flag!!"

but the thing is: they're little. a lot of them don't really have a handle on all their mouth sounds yet.

such as, notably, that tricky tricky "L" sound.
